Domesticated birds (515) consisting of 185 broiler (), 130 layers ( Sp), 75 free range local chicken (), 40 house pigeon (), 70 ducks () and 15 turkeys () reared in valley districts of Manipur were investigated for intestinal protozoan and helminthic infections. Fresh faecal samples of these birds were examined microscopically by direct wet smear with 2.5 % potassium dichromate (KCrO). Of these 412 (80 %) were found to be infected with different species of gastrointestinal parasites. The highest (90.8 %) prevalence of these parasitic infections was found in broiler followed by layer (78.5 %), duck (75.7 %), house pigeon (75 %), Turkey (66.7 %) and free range local chicken (65.3 %), etc. A total of 10 species of intestinal parasites were encountered. Among these, the protozoans and were the most common (68.3 %) followed by mixed infection of protozoan and Helminths.
对在曼尼普尔邦山谷地区饲养的515只家禽进行了调查，这些家禽包括185只肉鸡（）、130只蛋鸡（Sp）、75只本地散养鸡（）、40只家鸽（）、70只鸭（）和15只火鸡（），以检测其肠道原生动物和蠕虫感染情况。通过用2.5%重铬酸钾（KCrO）进行直接湿涂片，对这些家禽的新鲜粪便样本进行显微镜检查。结果发现，其中412只（80%）感染了不同种类的胃肠道寄生虫。这些寄生虫感染的最高患病率（90.8%）出现在肉鸡中，其次是蛋鸡（78.5%）、鸭（75.7%）、家鸽（75%）、火鸡（66.7%）和本地散养鸡（65.3%）等。总共发现了10种肠道寄生虫。其中，原生动物和最为常见（68.3%），其次是原生动物和蠕虫的混合感染。
